Re: Leveling your titan - overview

Eddy, sounds like they sent you a 2" or 2.5" for the amount of lift and CBC you got.

I ran it for a while. The ride stiffened up some and it was hard to keep it aligned, as well as cbc. Dropped to a 1.5" and haven't had any problems.

No that's right then 1.5" spacer and bilsteins on middle perch should equal about 2.5" of total lift.

I get my ucas today, this should get rid of the CBC right? Only question I have is if my cv joint will be ok?

Re: Leveling your titan - overview

Yeah you will be ok, I did grind the lip down just a bit on mine just to be sure. I have not had any issues since install, over 10k miles. You will be running exactly what I am on mine (assuming you did the RC's)

If you can install a leveling kit, you can do uca's. The driver side is somewhat difficult because of the break lines.

Re: Leveling your titan - overview

It took me about 9 hours to do everything - struts, UCA's, spacers, rear shocks and blocks. I would guess about 3-4 hours just for the UCA's. Really it is just unhooking the spindel from the UCA, then removing the 2 bolts on each UCA, then replacing them, it is a tight fit in there and those mothers are on very tight. But once you do it, you will know alot more about your truck, and a couple $$ richer.

I guess I've had my front end apart too many times. I can have both front shocks out in under 30 min. I'll time myself when my PRG arms come in lol. And yes, the bashing may commence since I didn't get DK; Called Greg an he gave me a great price on the uca's and hemmed steering.

Re: Leveling your titan - overview

OK This thread is about leveling So i will ask here. I have an '08 LE 2WD LWB I want to level. I have a body kit so I need to go down in the rear instead of up in the front. I assume I just need 2" drop shackles in the rear but the only ones I can find are on Ebay and they are no name brand. I dont like putting cheap parts on especially anything safty related. Does anyone know where I can get quality drop shackles or know a better way to level it in the rear. I tow my wifes car to shows (where we enter them both) so I dont want to weaken the rear..
